Trimming also helps keep your bite the same by ensuring that the veneer doesn’t stick out. You don’t have to worry about trimming, we follow the required guidelines on the size of enamel that can be trimmed. If the veneer being used is thinner, then only a minute part of the enamel will be trimmed. Either way, the installation process is simple and precise.
